That's a great inside look. Love hearing the commentary from the players and the referees.

 

[MRV52]

That was good.

 

[HoustonSucks]

Love OScan.

Stafford whining, instead of begging his coach for TO GO IT on 4th & 1. Also, it's was 3rd & 1 on that play. Why are they throwing in the first place? Idiocy. They deserved to lose.

So it sounds like the Lions were given an answer as to why it was picked up. The media keeps saying they weren't given an explanation.

Scandrick chirpin in that refs ear lol

he's right though, up until that point Dallas had been getting some questionable and flat out wrong flags against them

 

[Eric_Boyer]

Stafford is such a loser. your team is winning, tons of time left, and you are crying congrats as if you realize any shot of holding that lead just flew out the front door

 

[sacase]

Did the ref tell him shut up and play?

It seems Megatron was not aware face guarding was legal. I wonder if the refs hearing their exchange had an effect on picking up the flag.

I've watched this three times. I'm not sure why, but I get a lot of pleasure from it.

I think it's the whine in Stafford's voice. Just knowing that's got to grate on some lolions fans nerves. Then the cut to the clip where it's clearly not PI, after all just cracks me up.

 

[Frozen700]

OScan is that dude....hahaha

 

[TonyRomo17]

They will upload the whole game highlights with players mic'd up later today at nfl.com , ill post the link

 

[Titleist]

Yeah, but he's totally right! Up until that point (and especially in the first half) we were getting penalties left and right. Bad officiating all around IMO. It's the playoffs, just let them play.

Even worse is he had a wide open option on the other side but threw it into Hitchens back knowing it would likely draw the flag.

 

[Jenky]

****** throw Stafford. ****** throw.

This is a pretty big clue as to why Stafford will likely continue to struggle against winning teams. He can't put disappointment behind him. He spends a ton of extra energy whining to the entire sideline and the officials, even going so far as to "congratulate" them on screwing him over.

If you want to win, put on your grown up pants and go look at shots of the defense and have a discussion with your QB coach and OC to figure out how to score the next time you have the ball.

If you want to lose, go back to the sideline and whine for several minutes. Then you can fumble away the ball twice on your last drive to lose the game.

If I'm the Lions coach, I lose a lot of confidence in Stafford being the right guy to win with. At this point he's Andy Dalton with a stronger arm.

Let's be honest. Whether it's pass interference or not (of course I don't believe it was) stafford threw the ball to a man that is covered with ZERO expectation that his receiver would catch it and every expectation that they would get a call.

Now ask yourself. Is that in the spirit of the rule? Is that why pass interference is a penalty? Is that what we want football to become? No it's not.

 

[Nightman]

Unbelievable

That field-level angle from around the 1:42 mark shows just how far Hitchens' body was from Pettigrew. I hadn't seen that angle before.
